Description of American Eagle Heart
Sometime ago I stopped and began following one of the Southland's more popular couples, Jackie and Shadow.
Jackie and Shadow aren't people, they are a pair of Bald Eagles and thousands of people follow their life om Big Bear California.
I so enjoyed watching them -- and they gave me the idea of stitching a Bald Eagle for our Anniversary.
I stitched on white congress cloth 8" x 8". The heart is approximately 4.5" wide x 4.3" tall.
I used 9 colors of Soie d'Alger, all are cut and labeled in enough amounts that you will have enough if you make a few minor errors.
There are no finishing instructions I'm not good at sewing so I send all of my hearts to a finisher, Sandy Higgins.
The cost of the kit is $63.00 and includes shipping and insurance. I find as a rule that packages sent Priority are 'safer' ie they travel faster and arrive in better shape, actually a suggestion of my post office.
AS YOUR KITS ARRIVE PLEASE CHECK THE SUPPLIES AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING.
PLEASE THINK ABOUT JOINING MY FACEBOOK STITCHALONG ROOM AND POSTING YOUR PROGRESS.
Lots of Eagles on their way to the post office later this afternoon. I will finish shipping by Thurs.
Some Details about your Kit Price and Shipping
A while ago the post office suggested shipping my kits by Priority Mail. The postman told me the shipping is quicker and gentler and a sure way for delivery, with the tracking information and insurance.
Over time I have used Priority shipping for all of the reasons above, namely packages are less likely to be lost and more likely to arrive in undamaged condition.
Those are the upsides. The downside: the service is more expensive, in this case it accounts for pennies less than $10.00 of your kit cost. I also don't have pickup service so I have to drive all packages down to our post office.
